For Lou Whiteman, Sean Quast, and Dan Boyd behind the glass, I'm Travis William.

Thanks for listening to Motley Fool Money.

We'll see you here tomorrow.

Disney has their new CEO.

Is this time different?

Motley Fool Money starts now.

Welcome to Motley Fool Money.

I'm Travis Hoey.

I'm joined today by Lou Whiteman and Rachel Warren.

The Bob Iger era is officially coming to a close on March 18th, Lou, after Josh DeMauro was chosen to be the next CEO.

Dana Walden, who was in the running to be CEO, is going to be promoted to chief creative officer.

They both got big contracts along with that.

Let's start with Iger.

How are we going to look back on his tenure over the last 20 or so years at Disney?

Or just stay on for life.

What is different this time is they apparently had over 100 people on their radar for this job.

I think that's always interesting because there was really only two or three who seemed to be seriously in the running.

But his tenure is going to end about nine months early from the contracted end at the end of 2026.

And there's a story there, right?

I don't know what it is.
